unbeseeming_a a_o conception_n and_o so_o that_o god_n which_o they_o fancy_n to_o themselves_o be_v not_o the_o true_a god_n but_o a_o idol_n of_o their_o own_o imagination_n who_o they_o confine_v to_o so_o narrow_a a_o habitation_n as_o a_o few_o little_a bee_n shut_v up_o within_o the_o limit_n of_o a_o hive_n contain_v the_o measure_n of_o a_o few_o inch_n for_o what_o else_o be_v that_o world_n which_o they_o suppose_v in_o respect_n of_o that_o true_o great_a and_o universal_a world_n above_o describe_v §_o 7._o but_o if_o they_o say_v they_o do_v not_o shut_v up_o god_n within_o this_o finite_a universe_n but_o do_v imagine_v he_o to_o exist_v in_o infinite_a imaginary_a space_n as_o well_o without_o as_o within_o it_o to_o this_o may_v be_v answer_v if_o those_o space_n be_v mere_o imaginary_a certain_o than_o they_o be_v nothing_o but_o foolish_a fiction_n of_o the_o brain_n but_o if_o they_o be_v real_a being_n what_o can_v they_o be_v but_o creature_n of_o god_n beside_o either_o god_n work_v in_o those_o space_n or_o he_o do_v not_o if_o he_o do_v not_o than_o god_n be_v not_o there_o for_o wheresoever_o he_o be_v there_o he_o work_v see_v this_o be_v his_o nature_n that_o he_o must_v so_o act_v as_o it_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o fire_n to_o burn_v or_o of_o the_o sun_n to_o shine_v for_o so_o god_n perpetual_o work_v and_o his_o work_n be_v to_o create_v or_o give_v be_v to_o creature_n according_a to_o that_o eternal_a idea_n or_o wisdom_n which_o be_v in_o he_o according_a to_o the_o hebrew_n god_n be_v infinite_a who_o they_o call_v aensoph_n for_o that_o he_o be_v say_v to_o exist_v without_o the_o space_n of_o the_o world_n because_o the_o creature_n can_v not_o contain_v the_o immensity_n of_o his_o light_n see_v what_o be_v say_v in_o annotation_n on_o the_o first_o chapter_n neither_o be_v he_o say_v to_o exist_v in_o imaginary_a space_n because_o no_o place_n plain_o agree_v with_o god_n but_o he_o may_v be_v say_v to_o operate_v there_o by_o his_o simple_a activity_n but_o whatsoever_o be_v wrought_v in_o and_o by_o the_o way_n of_o the_o creature_n be_v do_v by_o the_o messiah_n who_o be_v not_o so_o immense_a as_o aens●ph_v himself_o §_o 8._o but_o this_o continual_a action_n or_o operation_n of_o god_n as_o it_o be_v in_o he_o or_o proceed_v from_o he_o or_o have_v respect_n unto_o he_o be_v one_o only_o continual_a act_n or_o command_n of_o his_o will_n neither_o have_v time_n or_o succession_n in_o it_o nor_o first_o nor_o latter_a but_o be_v together_o and_o always_o present_a with_o god_n so_o that_o nothing_o of_o he_o be_v either_o past_a or_o to_o come_v because_o he_o have_v not_o part_n but_o so_o far_o as_o he_o appear_v or_o terminate_v in_o creature_n he_o have_v time_n and_o succession_n of_o part_n and_o though_o this_o may_v seem_v very_o difficult_a to_o be_v comprehend_v yet_o it_o can_v be_v sufficient_o evince_v by_o sound_a reason_n and_o will_v not_o this_o plain_a and_o common_a example_n follow_v a_o little_a help_n our_o understanding_n herein_o suppose_v a_o great_a circle_n or_o wheel_n to_o be_v move_v by_o a_o centre_n whereas_o the_o centre_n always_o remain_v in_o one_o place_n even_o as_o some_o do_v think_v the_o sun_n after_o this_o manner_n to_o be_v move_v about_o his_o centre_n by_o some_o angel_n or_o spirit_n remain_v in_o the_o centre_n within_o the_o space_n of_o so_o many_o day_n now_o albeit_o the_o centre_n move_v the_o whole_a wheel_n and_o cause_v a_o great_a and_o continual_a motion_n in_o the_o same_o yet_o that_o always_o rest_v neither_o be_v it_o in_o the_o least_o move_v how_o much_o more_o than_o be_v the_o same_o in_o god_n who_o be_v the_o first_o mover_n in_o all_o his_o creature_n according_a to_o all_o their_o true_a and_o appoint_a motion_n yet_o he_o be_v not_o move_v of_o they_o but_o that_o in_o he_o which_o have_v a_o analogy_n or_o agreement_n with_o the_o motion_n or_o operation_n of_o creature_n be_v the_o government_n of_o his_o will_n which_o to_o speak_v proper_o be_v not_o motion_n because_o every_o motion_n be_v successive_a and_o can_v have_v place_n in_o god_n as_o be_v above_o demonstrate_v §_o 9_o but_o against_o what_o we_o have_v deliver_v that_o the_o least_o creature_n conceivable_a have_v in_o it_o infinite_a creature_n so_o that_o the_o least_o particle_n of_o body_n or_o matter_n may_v be_v infinite_a way_n extend_v and_o divide_v into_o part_n less_o and_o yet_o still_o lesser_o and_o lesser_a some_o may_v frame_v this_o follow_a objection_n that_o which_o be_v actual_o divisible_a so_o far_o as_o a_o actual_a division_n can_v any_o way_n be_v make_v be_v divisible_a into_o part_n indiscerpible_a but_o matter_n or_o body_n to_o wit_n that_o matter_n that_o be_v entire_a or_o compound_a be_v actual_o divisible_a so_o far_o as_o a_o actual_a division_n can_v any_o way_n be_v make_v therefore_o etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v this_o argument_n labour_v under_o that_o fallacy_n which_o logician_n call_v compositiones_fw-la non_fw-la componendorum_fw-la which_o be_v a_o conjunction_n of_o word_n or_o term_n that_o imply_v a_o contradiction_n or_o absurdity_n and_o that_o appear_v in_o this_o term_n actual_o divisible_a which_o signify_v one_o and_o the_o same_o thing_n to_o be_v divide_v and_o not_o to_o be_v divide_v for_o actual_o denote_v division_n and_o divisible_a not_o division_n but_o only_o a_o capacity_n to_o be_v divide_v which_o be_v as_o absurd_a and_o contradictory_n as_o if_o one_o shall_v say_v visible_o blind_a or_o sensible_o insensible_a or_o live_o dead_a but_o if_o by_o the_o term_n actual_o divisible_a they_o do_v not_o mean_v two_o but_o only_o one_o thing_n to_o wit_n that_o it_o be_v either_o real_o divide_v or_o only_o divisible_a we_o shall_v easy_o discover_v the_o fallacy_n for_o first_o if_o by_o actual_o divisible_a they_o mean_v nothing_o else_o but_o that_o which_o be_v divide_v in_o this_o sense_n i_o grant_v the_o major_n to_o wit_n that_o that_o which_o be_v real_o divide_v so_o far_o as_o a_o actual_a division_n can_v any_o way_n be_v make_v be_v divisible_a into_o part_n indiscerpible_a but_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o minor_a be_v false_a viz._n that_o matter_n be_v divide_v so_o far_o as_o a_o actual_a division_n can_v possible_o be_v make_v but_o second_o if_o by_o that_o which_o they_o call_v actual_o divisible_a they_o mean_v a_o thing_n only_o divisible_a or_o in_o which_o there_o be_v a_o power_n or_o capacity_n to_o be_v so_o divide_v now_o i_o deny_v the_o major_n to_o wit_n that_o that_o which_o be_v divisible_a so_o far_o as_o division_n can_v be_v make_v be_v divisible_a into_o part_n indiscerpible_a and_o beside_o in_o this_o sense_n that_o proposition_n be_v mere_o tautological_a and_o a_o needless_a repetition_n of_o the_o same_o thing_n just_a as_o this_o will_v be_v whatsoever_o can_v be_v remove_v out_o of_o its_o place_n in_o as_o much_o as_o it_o can_v be_v remove_v may_v be_v remove_v to_o some_o certain_a distance_n but_o london_n or_o rome_n may_v be_v remove_v out_o of_o their_o place_n in_o as_o much_o as_o they_o may_v be_v remove_v ergo_fw-la etc._n etc._n by_o the_o same_o way_n of_o argument_n may_v be_v prove_v that_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n consist_v of_o a_o finite_a number_n of_o year_n only_o in_o which_o it_o do_v exist_v or_o have_v a_o be_v and_o consequent_o that_o it_o be_v mortal_a and_o have_v a_o end_n to_o wit_n thus_o that_o who_o time_n or_o duration_n be_v actual_o divisible_a so_o far_o as_o a_o actual_a division_n can_v possible_o be_v make_v shall_v have_v a_o end_n and_o be_v divisible_a into_o a_o finite_a number_n of_o year_n but_o the_o time_n or_o duration_n of_o the_o soul_n be_v actual_o divisible_a so_o far_o as_o a_o actual_a division_n can_v possible_o be_v make_v ergo_fw-la etc._n etc._n but_o if_o it_o be_v deny_v that_o the_o time_n of_o the_o soul_n if_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o such_o a_o division_n of_o year_n shall_v then_o have_v a_o end_n but_o that_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o it_o to_o reassume_a another_o time_n after_o this_o first_o and_o so_o ad_fw-la infinitum_fw-la now_o i_o say_v the_o same_o which_o be_v that_o matter_n if_o it_o shall_v come_v to_o such_o a_o division_n may_v indeed_o have_v a_o end_n of_o that_o division_n but_o yet_o may_v admit_v of_o another_o division_n after_o this_o first_o and_o so_o ad_fw-la infinitum_fw-la and_o here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v when_o i_o say_v the_o least_o particle_n of_o body_n or_o matter_n so_o call_v may_v be_v always_o divide_v into_o part_n less_o ad_fw-la infinitum_fw-la so_o that_o no_o actual_a division_n can_v be_v make_v in_o any_o matter_n which_o be_v not_o always_o far_a divisible_a or_o capable_a to_o be_v divide_v into_o less_o
